Chapter 92: Eyeliner

The long winding street is like a giant python crawling in the dark, twisting and turning, stretching endlessly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Not far away, two faint lights, like round snake pupils in the dark night, emitted a dim light.

"It's here. Stretching the sweat from his forehead, Marten whispered to the two behind him, and Thor caught a glimpse of a towering wall through those two bits of light.

"That's ...... The entrance to the lower zone leads to the central zone," the three quickened their pace, and the fat merchant gasped.

For Marten, who was accustomed to horse-drawn carriages, it was not easy to cross the entire lower Worms with his feet.

"How shall we get there?" asked Thor, who could clearly see in the darkness the wall that spanned almost the entire city, separating the middle and lower districts, like a bottomless ravine.

Although the deep ditch is downward and the high wall is upward, the similarity between the two is that they cannot be crossed.

"Ah...... It's okay, we can go in through the entrance," Malten's face relaxed, sweat sliding down his smiling cheeks "I've lived here for many years, and the guards guarding the gate recognize me......"

As they spoke, the three of them followed the widening road step by step to the entrance that opened between the high walls.

The two dim glows come from two iron shelves erected at the top of the wall, which are inverted triangles and hollow inside, with a blazing torch on top, which is covered with a pear-yellow glass lampshade to provide a bright flame to shield from the wind and rain.

"Stop-" Two tall figures flashed under the corner of the wall, of course, compared to Thor who was more than two meters tall, they were naturally not "tall", but they were already outstanding among ordinary people.

The guards who had been seen following the clerk of Platinum Harbor were dressed in the same way, brown and red leather armor, cloaks, black boots, and a short stick pinned to their waists, and it was Worms's guards who stood in front of the three of Thor.

To Thor's surprise, he hadn't met a single guard patrolling the streets in the Lower District.

"It's me, Anji, who I haven't seen you for a few months, and I don't know you?" Marten raised his head, letting the light illuminate his face, and the guard called Anji leaned forward a little more, as if he had finally seen clearly, and then changed into a friendly appearance and said warmly:

"Yo, it's Master Tromp—are you on your way back?" the young guard named Angie waved at the other guard behind him, signaling that he should not be on guard, and then he leaned closer to Malten, and said flatteringly:

"You must have made a lot of money this time, right? It's rumored in the city that you collected a lot of grain from Meyer's house before you left, hehe, I'll congratulate you first!"

Marten nodded sullenly, stretched out his right hand and put it on Angie's shoulder, and said to him in a deep voice, "Well, I will invite the brethren to Devalen to be happy in a few days-" After saying that, he wanted to push the guard away and go inside.

Unexpectedly, Anji took a step back slightly, dodged Malten's hand, and said with a smile on his face: "Eh, that's really good, it's a great honor to be invited by you, master-"

said this, but he was firmly in front of the three of them, and he didn't have the slightest intention of letting them go.

Seeing that Malten didn't answer him, Angie stepped forward again, casually pointed to Thor and Kratos behind him and asked Malten: "Master Tromp, who are these two ......?"

Thor watched from behind, already knowing what the guard meant, and he strode forward, looking down at Anji, who was tall among ordinary people, but still a head shorter than himself.

The young guard was caught by Thor's momentum, and involuntarily took a step back, his pores opened, and he subconsciously held his hand on the short stick at his waist, and another companion behind him also walked over vigilantly.

Thor smiled, his white teeth almost reflecting the light, and he quickly pulled Angie's hand around his waist, and handed a round gold coin into his hand before the other party was about to scream out the next moment.

"Master Tromp is in a hurry to go home and rest, it's cold at night, go buy some wine to drink." ”

Feeling the hard object in his hand, Anji immediately closed his mouth and wanted to open his mouth to shout, and nodded at Thor with a smile in understanding.

He quickly lowered his head, his wrist rolled slightly, he caught a glimpse of a golden light out of the corner of his eye, his face suddenly multiplied tenfold with joy, and his waist immediately bent again, and hurriedly retreated to the side to get out of the way, repeating over and over again:

"It's my negligence, it's my negligence, you must be tired when you come back so far away...... I'll just say you've made a lot of money...... Congratulations—"

Seeing that the other party was no longer in the way, Malten glanced at Thor apologetically, then nodded, and hurried towards the central area.

"Huh?—Angie" As soon as he walked a few meters, Malten suddenly stopped, pointed to Angie's other companion and asked, "Where's that Ralph guy? Isn't it always the two of you?"

Angie carefully turned her back, carefully illuminated by the light on the wall, looked at the rose pattern on the gold coin, heard Marten's question, and hurriedly turned around, sighed and replied:

"Ah, Ralph that guy was unlucky, he drank too much and slept on the side of the road at night, and his leg was crushed by the noble lord's carriage, this boy is new-"

With a slight bow, Malten said no more, and hurried away with Thor and Kratos.

Silence returned to the streets, and there was no sound except for a few howls of night owls.

"Cut, what's the spirit? not even a noble—" Turning back and seeing that the person had disappeared into the night, Anji bit the golden rose in his hand with his teeth, and said to himself with half disdain and half ecstasy on his face:

"But this guy is so generous, oh my God, this is a real golden rose, this one is enough for me to spend for two months. ”

Then he sighed faintly: "It's good to be rich, tsk, look at the figure of those two followers, the god of light is on top, there must be two or three meters - if I also hire a ......"

"Boss-" Angie, who was immersed in fantasy, was suddenly interrupted. He came back to his senses and looked at the other newcomer companion who ran in front of him, with an unhappy look on his face, "Why did you forget, there is still this kid on the side." ”

The so-called seeers have a share, if they were on duty with Ralph before, how could this golden rose have to be divided in half, I thought that this newcomer didn't understand anything, but I didn't expect that now I would take the initiative to come up, and the thought of the money in hand to be divided, Angie's heart ached.

"Boss, my stomach hurts so much, can I walk away for a while?"

"Ahh?......h

After being stunned for a moment, Anji replied blankly: "Uh...... Well...... I mean, okay - go ahead. ”

Finn was granted amnesty, clutching his stomach and running to the other side of the wall.

"Whew-" Exhaled, Anji wiped the sweat oozing from his head, and put the golden rose into his arms: "It's really rare to have such a stupid child now, haha-"

Anji, who laughed at the newcomer, didn't notice that Finn ran a few meters along the dark corner of the wall and then ran away, how could he have a slight stomach ache, a sneer pulled at the corner of his mouth, and he quickly ran towards a house somewhere in the central district.
